About Me

As Amsterdamian, I try to create a relationship with this mysterious city. I love it and can’t get enough of it. Everywhere I look, there’s something beautiful. I walk, I see, I take photos, I share. This is an invitation for you to join me in my journey through Amsterdam, to get to know together the life, the people, the streets and all the hidden corners.

Go North: NDSM-Werf in Amsterdam Noord

If you want to experience a different face of Amsterdam, take the ferry across the IJ and go to Amsterdam Noord. One very popular destination is NDSM-Werf, a former dock transformed in a place for artists, student houses, flea markets and interesting bars and restaurants. Former factories and industrial containers were converted to welcoming places for different kind of activities. I like that area for its industrial look, for the street art that can be found all over the place and the great view over the IJ’s waters.

Here are a few photos from a walk around the area and a day that I’ve spent mostly at Pllek, enjoying the pleasant sun of this late summer:
